Another of my personal wishes is for us to work more into empowering women and gender nonconforming people both for leadership positions and having a more active voice within NCSG, and the only way we can do it is by being more welcoming and understanding of our differences and backgrounds. No Racism, discrimination or rudeness to each other should be justifiable on cultural backgrounds and - as one of the spaces for academia and civil society within ICANN - our community's main goal is to become more and more a safe space!

With the chance that I will forget names, Id like to thank everyone who was by my side since I joined the NCUC EC until today, found time to help me understand my role within this community and as chair. Therefore, my special thank you goes to all the Tatianas, Avris, Farzanehs, Miltons, Rafiks, Renatas, Louises, Olgas and many more of you.
